Rediscovering Homer

Více o knize

Exploring the origins of the Odyssey and the Iliad, Andrew Dalby questions the traditional understanding of Homer and the legend of Troy. He examines the transition of these epic tales from oral tradition to written form, challenging previous interpretations of early evidence. Dalby presents a compelling argument that both epics are the creations of a single poet, ultimately concluding that this enigmatic figure was likely a woman, offering a fresh perspective that may astonish classical scholars.
